Pale peach with a huge, extremely intense royal purple eye that covers much of the face. The overall effect is much like purple ink spilled on parchment. EGYPTIAN QUEEN can have up to 40 buds and five lateral branches. A difficult pod parent with excellent pollen, EGYPTIAN QUEEN is proving to be an excellent parent for narrow, bold-eyed spidery seedlings that, most importantly for the hybridizer, are pod fertile. Evergreen, but very hardy, with emerging scapes throughout the season. Sibling to WILD HORSES.
